After all the shit that I've seen posted on here, PotD is so far left that it would almost be considered right. Politics needs to stay off the internet but that will never happen because people are too biast.

The site is owned by a major DNC donor, and the moderation practices generally skew pretty far to the left on both political and social issues. However, a lot of it just comes down to the mods' individual whims although, obviously, structurally speaking the mods tend to pick people who embody their same political and social opinions.

Likewise, the overall userbase tends to skew far to the left as well, certainly a lot more so than the general population.

Basically it's the kind of site where somebody makes a topic with the overt message that people should murder the rich and it's left up there. And you'll sometimes see posts from leftists advocating that people who don't think and believe what they do should be put into prison camps, which the mods don't touch. And it kinda extends further than that, because people who extol far-left political beliefs gain immunity in non-political areas as well, as we've seen with posters who joke about wanting to hit other posters with their car.

If you compare Gamefaqs to other forums, it comes out a lot further to the left. However, it pales in comparison to places like Twitter and Facebook.

The website or the forum populace?

The website tries to be apolitical I think.

The posting populace? While we have all kinds of political posters, I think the majority is centre-right to further right (Which covers the majority of US Democrats and US Republicans)

I dunno bout that. I think it's the exact opposite. The left is extremely vocal on here (mainly Politics board) and any conservative voices get drowned out. Especially during the Trump era and the fallout of that. Before Trump and even in his early days you saw a lot more from conservative posters. A lot of them shut up after constantly being embarrassed, while some became more emboldened.

But if you go off Politics and go to other big boards like WWE or NGG its still largely conservative. Also a lot on the comics board. The fact of the matter is no "liberal" forum would ever have tolerated a MAGA board, far less encouraged it. Full stop. And it would still be around if not for certain events that forced the admins hand. This site was way more liberal back when I first joined in the 2000s but as a lot of people left, what remains are many bitter right leaning men.

I would say most popular web forum sites are populated by more politically left due to younger and less wealthy people being the main users of most popular web forum sites in the first place.

However, if we are talking about the site itself, you are far more likely to get modded for posting a right leaning opinion, then a left one.

Trump pushed the right really into some tos violating stuff. A lot of the right wing posters here have been banned, though some rage quit when they kept getting smacked in the face with reality.

I've been modded for saying I wasn't getting the vaccine and that a teacher being fired for speaking the truth shows the world is heading downhill.

Yep that's talking about covid and GF...can't dare speak ill of either of them or you get the ol mod hammer for it.

Well look at the poll breakdown. The first 2 options are dominating which tells me lots of salty conservatives on here. Irony being is they voting for these while their mere presence is contradictory to those options. Btw the left is the smallest group on here, most liberals are NOT leftist.

People like you really need some perspective. On what far left is. Even the likes of AOC and Bernie Sanders aren't far left, nevermind freaking Justin Trudeau whose as vanilla as they get. Come back when Canada has people like Castro or Hugo Chavez who aren't just fringe whackjobs.
